He's Got Plenty Of Time

Written 1-11-1989

Verse 1:
I know a story that's often told
about a man sleeping alone out in the cold
under a bridge down an alley way
ask him to explain he'll say there's no other way

Refrain:
he's got plenty of time
but he's got no time
yeah he's got plenty of time
but he's got no time

Verse 2:
he had a family once upon a time
but times were hard hey that ain't no crime
and so he left in search of better pay
but when he returned they'd gone away

Refrain.

Verse 3:
he'll have a job for maybe a week
hey maybe this is his lucky streak
then it seems fate comes back again
and he's back on the street no job no home no friend

Refrain.

Verse 4:
he doesn't like to think about all he's lost
he hides from the past at any cost
keeps on moving to block from his mind
the loved ones dear who he'll never find

Refrain.
